So this new theory is an amalgamation of everything. It was hijacked, committed suicide, by crashing into the sea. What I don't get is how hijacking and suicide is a likely combination.

Still waiting for someone reporting a tractor beam pulling the plane into a UFO's hanger deck.

[Viennacon]

Ridiculous. It was not a suicide flight. They’d have crashed it where they were. no reason to try and avoid radar and fly for hours.

We have a winner.
Best analysis of events;
"I don't think there is any consensus on a theory," the official said.

[Sarah Barracuda]

At first I thought maybe it was like the EgyptAir flight, a suicidal pilot. I dont believe that anymore..if either of these two pilots wanted to off themselves they would have done it in the China Sea, no need to turn off the transponder, just scream out Allah Akbar and be done with it, no need to be all secretive

[Veto!]

My inner cynic is beginning to think perhaps there’s a coverup going on. Who would cover up what? How about Rolls-Royce covering engine failure? Or Boeing?

Why? Can passengers’ families sue? Can RR and Boeing lose sales?

[tflabo]

Pilot and 1st Officer are/were muslims. Risk factor for an internal job goes way way up.

[MayflowerMadam]

These people know that America always jumps in to help in crises. Maybe they’re using this plane search as bait to lure our ships, etc., in a vulnerable position and then annihilate them.

Or Langoliers.
Or alien abduction.

[RC one]

yeah, it was pirates, that’s the ticket.

[Jack Hydrazine]

If it crashed into the sea why didn’t the ELTs automatically activate?

Pulau We, Sabang, SBC. An airport.

On an Island off the coast of Banda Aceh.

[MuttTheHoople]

I believe what Dr. Limbaugh and Dr. Savage said: It was probably shot down by some jet from a paranoid country, then covered it up when they realized what they did.

[Revolting cat!]

I’m waiting for the theory mongers to say “I am an idiot!” when the mystery is resolved and it doesn’t match their ridiculous theories.

[Caipirabob]

The next time we'll see this plane, if we ever do, will be just prior to use of a chemical, bio or nuclear payload over a coastal city on the West coast.

Given the nature of what appears to be a spectacular cover up, this is as likely a scenario as any.

[ConservativeStatement]

Anyone hear the Mary Schiavo (sp.) person correct Hannity when he said “If a pilot, ..... he could...” She then said “He or SHE! In this case, it is a he...” Was that really necessary, lady?

[Revolting cat!]

With the investigation dragging on, and both Rolls Royce and Boeing involved and committing costly resources to it, look for Rolls Royces and Boeings go up in prices after all this is over.

[Fester Chugabrew]

If this plane did not suffer a sudden demise, there would have been at least some cell phone communication indicating a hijacking or a general problem, no? The fact that no human voice communication whatsoever regarding conditions in the air were received on our end points heavily to a catastrophic event that prevented the same. Instant depressurization, for example. That this plane is safely parked somewhere is, IMO, highly unlikely.

[stlnative]

The New York Times, quoting American officials and others familiar with the investigation, said radar signals recorded by the Malaysian military appear to show the airliner climbing to 45,000 feet (about 13,700 meters), higher than a Boeing 777's approved limit, soon after it disappeared from civilian radar, and making a sharp turn to the west. The radar track then shows the plane descending unevenly to an altitude of 23,000 feet (7,000 meters), below normal cruising levels, before rising again and flying northwest over the Strait of Malacca toward the Indian Ocean, the Times reported.

If true... then this sounds like the planes pilots were not flying it at this point.

[eyedigress]

Putin tells Bronco, “I can steal a Boeing 777 out of mid-air fag-boy”

Bronco tells Putin, “No you can’t”

[wxgesr]

The Strait of Malacca is the busiest shipping lane on the world. Last I sailed through there, 1980 or so, there were hundreds of ships lined up like rush hour.....I am most certain floating debris would have shown up by now.

[Cvengr]

Just wait until the next one goes missing.

[Revolting cat!]

Your silly theory, whatever it is, we know that it is based on no hard evidence of any kind, this fantasy says more about you, lots about you, and nothing about this incident, sorry. A good shrink would have a field day with all this paranoid nonsense.
